Every year at this time, the MDJH Student Council runs the Adopt A Senior fundraiser. Homerooms collect money and gifts to help a senior at St. Pat’s Mercy Home have a happier Christmas. Here, the Student Council and teacher mentors pose with the 27 gifts collected for our Adopt a Senior Project 2017.

On Friday, December 22nd, the last day prior to Christmas, dismissal for all students will be at 12:30pm. We will be having a compressed day of five periods with an extended recess. Students will not be permitted to leave class to deliver gifts….this can be done at recess.

School will be reopening on Monday, January 8th, and it will be Day 6 on the schedule.

Macdonald Drive Junior High is hosting our annual toy drive and fund raiser. Help us by donating a new, unwrapped toy /game. Consider kids up to about 13 years of age. You may also help by making a donation of $5.00 (or more). We will donate any toys to the Happy Tree foundation, and will distribute any funds collected to needy families in our school community. Gifts and donations should be dropped off at the office.

In appreciation of your gift, we will enter your name in a draw for a $100.00 BestBuy gift card. The draw will be on Dec. 22nd.
Be sure to leave your name and phone number at the office! Thank you for your support!

We live in an on-line world, and many of our students are connected to that world as often as possible. How much do you know about your child’s on-line habits? Digital Citizenship is something we aim to teach to all our students, and part of that teaching process is parental involvement.

Here is a checklist you can look over to see how involved you are with your child’s surfing and gaming activities. You might find something here to talk over, or something you might find interesting to yourself. After all, if you can read this, you are on the web…
